Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I dread correcting someone because it always seems to come out as an attack on who they are, and they get defensive and shut down
- When someone does something genuinely great I tend to file it away to mention at their review, and by the time it comes around it’s gone cold and vague
- In hard conversations I fire back from the gut and instantly wish I’d said it differently
- My consequences keep escalating into these long, draining standoffs that wreck the whole evening for both of us, and I just want a way to mark that a line was crossed, let it pass in a few seconds, and have us back to okay without the drawn-out battle.
- I keep getting frustrated that people aren’t hitting the bar
Practices that may help
- One-minute reprimands: immediate, specific, behavior-not-person
Effective correction is fast, focuses on the specific behavior, and ends with reaffirmation of the person’s value.
